"Humph! This Wan Anhou is too bold! Relying on the trust of the imperial brother in Beijing, I actually dare to kill my people without knowing whether they are alive or dead, which is really too deceitful! ”

Hu Sanbo and Zhang Songlin on the side looked happy, bowed to Zhao Yu, the king of Kang, who was sitting, and said, "That's it, this little marquis, no matter what he says, he won't listen to persuasion." It's just a matter of refuting the face of the lower officials, but you don't even look at the prince, and you have the audacity to say that you come to the palace to ask for guilt, it's really a thing that doesn't know whether to live or die! ”

The middle-aged man sat on the chair with a big belly, and it looked like his entire fat ass was squeezed out of the chair and hung in the air.

King Kang touched his mustache and muttered, "What is the origin of this Wan'an Hou, who dares to be so arrogant?" ”

Zhang Songlin said: "Lord Wang, I heard that he is a person with a mediocre family, and his ancestors seem to have had a marquis, but his family is in the middle of the road, and he doesn't know what the situation is this time, so he has become a celebrity in front of the saint." ”

In ancient times, the news was blocked, especially if it was not a major matter related to the safety of the society, and there may be no movement when it is spread, and a person like Zhang Songlin, who is bent on befriending the vassal king and earning ill-gotten gains, does not have the leisure to inquire about a marquis.

If someone is in the way of his way to get promoted and make a fortune, then it is worth him to understand this person.

King Kang raised his eyebrows and said: "What a great merit this is, this peaceful and prosperous world, it can actually be crowned a marquis, according to the age you said, I'm afraid it's a little abnormal." ”

Zhang Songlin said: "Maybe his ancestors have the shadow of the marquis." ”

King Kang shook his head and said, "How can there be such a shadowy seal, nonsense!" ”

"Lord Wang, Wan Anhou and the eldest princess Jin Jin."

"What!" King Kang's fat round body suddenly bounced up, and even the hugging chair was brought up, and Hu Sanbo, who was quick-eyed, quickly stretched out his hand, pulled the hugging chair down, and stood aside without raising his head.

King Kang's whole body was as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and his two little thick legs ran upside down, muttering, "How is she ...... Why did she get here......"

Seeing the sudden change in King Kang's face, Zhang Songlin was shocked, what is the situation? A prince, why are you still afraid of a little marquis?

"Quick, hurry up with this king out of the mansion to greet the eldest princess!"

Zhao Yu shook up his sleeves and ran quickly to the door of the mansion, and when he saw Zhao Xiao, who was still in his luxury, he was so frightened that he couldn't walk anymore.

"Nephew Zhao Yu, see ...... Met my aunt. ”

Zhao Xiao looked down, and when he saw this humanoid ball that was not as tall as her, he frowned, and said: "Just like at the beginning, the joy of greedy food, this fat and fat body, I am not afraid to kill myself!" ”

"Nephew...... Nephew...... Don't worry. ”

Lin Lan saw that Zhao Yu was so afraid of Zhao Xiao, and she was even more curious about Zhao Xiao when she was young, what did she do to these princes, and it still left such a shadow to this day, so that Zhao Yu was so jealous of Xiao and everyone.

"I heard Wan Anhou say, you actually instructed the state officials to hoard and buy illicit salt, and then sell it at a high price to obtain money, can there be such a thing?"

Zhao Yu panicked and said, "Huh? This one...... Never! Nothing like that! ”

"Really?"

Zhao Yu twisted his body, almost unable to bend down, and came over and said, "Auntie followed me into the house, let's talk about greetings in detail, standing here, what's the matter?" ”

Zhao Xiao nodded, and said in a low voice to Lin Lan: "My nephew has been afraid of things since he was a child, I'm afraid that this incident was not done by him, I, as an aunt, is not easy to talk about and frame me at will, you can be cautious when you speak later, otherwise you may not be able to steal chickens and rice." ”

Lin Lan smiled slightly, and said in a low voice, "Eldest Princess Xie reminds." ”

Several people sat in the hall, Zhao Yu's eyes that were squeezed into thin slits by fat widened slightly, looked at Xiao everyone, and then looked at Ruan Ciwen, and said: "My aunt is still the same as she was back then, she is really young, I don't know, I thought it was my royal sister, where is it like my aunt." ”

Xiao everyone raised their eyebrows with joy, but when they saw Ruan Ciwen rolling his eyes, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Okay, come here this time, and I will also greet you for the saint." You, the vassal king, would rather stay in Luoyang than go to Beijing, and your imperial brother was so sorry at the beginning. However, I heard Lin Lan say that you instructed the officials of Youzhou to divert the money allocated every year to repair post stations and post roads to buy illicit salt, you don't have to hide it. ”

King Kang swept around the entourage, and finally locked his eyes on Lin Lan, and snorted coldly: "You are Wan'an Hou Lin Lan?" ”

"Exactly, bothering the prince."

"Why don't you go to Yumen Pass to solve the matter of the mission, and go to this king's mansion to slander this king, what is your intention?"

The reason why Lin Lan was not in a hurry to go to Yumen Pass was naturally because the urgent report from the northwest had just arrived in his hands last night. Knowing that the imperial court sent someone to settle the matter of the mission, Hong Wenjie sent the information that Huyan Minglie was still unconscious, and in such a state, if the time of the alliance was advanced, it would be unfavorable to the Dajing Dynasty, so Hong Wenjie suggested that Lin Lan slow down his trip and delay it for the time being.

Since King Kang didn't admit it, he wanted to deliberately fool him through, all he wanted was to persuade Lin Lan to go to Yumen Pass quickly and not work him.

Lin Lan came back to her senses and said with a smile: "But, Lord Wang, you don't know, Huang San and Sun Zhao of Sinan County have all confessed, and the embezzled silver can be used to buy and sell private salt, which even Hu County Ling and Zhang Zhifu have recognized." Right, two? ”

Zhang Songlin, who was standing on the side, saw that King Kang wanted to die and refused to admit it, so he immediately denied it: "Nonsense, I didn't say that, you...... What evidence do you have? ”

Lin Lan saw that Zhang Songlin suddenly denied it, so he said: "Okay, can Governor Zhang and Huang County Ling tell me where this money is used?" Whether or not to allocate funds to the post station, let's sort this matter out. With such a large sum of silver, you can't say that it will be gone if you don't have it, right? ”

Zhang Songlin sweated on his forehead and said tremblingly: "This silver...... Bought rice! Didn't you tell Hou Ye about the famine before? The people have failed to harvest year after year, and the lower officials, as parents and officials, naturally opened warehouses for disaster relief, so the silver from repairing the post station filled this hole. ”

King Kang stroked his mustache and said: "Yes, this king can testify to this matter, there was such a large number of victims passing through Youzhou City, Zhang Zhifu was still discussing with this king at that time, this king felt that human life was critical, so he let him open a warehouse for disaster relief, and then the rice was not enough, so he had to buy it from other places, so the silver was misappropriated." ”

"What about the victims?"

"Naturally, the victims went back after the famine."

Zhang Songlin felt that this was a seamless lie.

What about the silver? I bought rice with money.

What about rice? Rice was given to the victims.

What about the victims? The victims ate the rice and left.
